Just finished this short but wonderful novel. I'm not sure there are many science fiction authors who manage to imbue the future with nostalgia, but Willis has done just that in Remake. Apparently, Ms. Willis is a movie-buff and she puts her hobby to work in this story of a future Hollywood that reuses old films to make new ones -- obviating the need for new talent. Alis, a young woman bent on dancing in musicals, will not be deterred from her dream despite the utter lack of demand. This is a wonderful story anyone who refuses to be told something is impossible and maybe even more wonderful for those who already believe it. Excellent!
